Sex Feels Good - U of Texas Researchers Spend 5 Years Getting to Obvious Conclusion (GALLERY)
[Edit]
[Edit]
Sounds much like what like I did in college, just didn’t write it down or think to publish or remember the reasons in the morning. According to the study’s list, the top reason was…the envelope please… They were attracted to the other person. Wow, big surprise there, didn’t see that one coming. Apparently being forced at gunpoint was way down on the list. In another groundbreaking study, UT researchers concluded that the single leading cause of death among Texas death row inmates was lethal injection. The Longhorns don’t have anything on Harvard or Princeton when it comes to cutting-edge research.
College-aged men and women agree on their top reasons for having sex — they were attracted to the person, they wanted to experience physical pleasure and "it feels good," according to a peer-reviewed study in the August edition of Archives of Sexual Behavior. Twenty of the top 25 reasons given for having sex were the same for men and women.
Expressing love and showing affection were in the top 10 for both men and women, but they did take a back seat to the clear No. 1: "I was attracted to the person."
Researchers at the University of Texas spent five years and their own money to study the overlooked why behind sex while others were spending their time on the how.
"It's refuted a lot of gender stereotypes ... that men only want sex for the physical pleasure and women want love," said University of Texas clinical psychology professor Cindy Meston, the study's co-author. "That's not what I came up with in my findings."
